Step by Step Method
Step 1
Season the chicken cutlets with pepper on both sides.
Step 2
In a small bowl, whisk together the apricot jam, soy sauce, sriracha hot sauce, and water until well combined. Set aside.
Step 3
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the avocado oil or olive oil. Allow the oil to get hot.
Step 4
Carefully place the chicken cutlets in the skillet and sear them for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Step 5
Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the apricot jam mixture to the skillet. Stir well to combine with the remaining oil and drippings.
Step 6
Return the chicken to the skillet and coat each cutlet with the sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together and the sauce to thicken slightly.
Step 7
Add the butter to the skillet and gently swirl it around until melted.
Step 8
Remove the skillet from the heat and let the chicken rest in the sauce for a couple of minutes to absorb the flavors.
Step 9
Serve the chicken with the sauce spooned over the top.
